just wanted to drop in here and say i appreciate this vid got my pc upgraded from a pretty crappy 8 gb to now a 32 gb ram and this vid helped a ton thanks bro !!!!
Just had the exact same problem but just oush it and keep slowly getting harder till it clicks- i had to push mine quite hard it was a bit atuck but the motherboard bends a bit dint worry bout it snapping
My son and I built our first gaming PC but the ram light on the motherboard would not go out. We even bought new ram we couldn't figure it out. Once we saw how hard you have to push down on them like in this vid after doing the same, like magic worked like a charm! Note: Put together every part gently with care but when it comes to ram jam it in like an old Nintendo cartridge 😂😂😂
Hey do you know where you can get the same exact ram stick? I wanted to upgrade and i have the same one right now. I wanted another of the same. Please!
I would appreciate answers to this question: I have 2 PNY 1600 8GB Ram sticks with C11 Latency. I want to buy 2 additional 8GB Ram sticks. Cost isn’t a factor. Should I buy: 2 Motoeagle 1600 8GB with C7 Latency or 2 PNY identical to the 2 that I am already using
Mine doesn’t full click in and wiggles back and forwards a bit if I wiggle it is it fine? It clicks a little bit I have to move the black plastic bit the rest it all looks like it’s fine am I good?
do i just install it in or do i need to activate it in the pc settings ?? i got a prebuilt 8gb but want to get 16 gb i got 2x 8gb sticks do i remove it and add them moth in ? @@milkymoth
So if you have two ram sticks from the same pack, do you put them right next to each other, or do you put one in the first slot and the other in the third slot? EDIT: nvm, I see you already answered this, my bad!
Otherwise, if you're mixing 2 different ram kits over 4 slots, it's best to have those kits match speed and timings as close as possible. Cause if not this can cause issues. if one is a higher speed it will clock down the speed of the slower stick. Or sometimes not even boot at all, in general it is best practice to match them exactly
Has anyone else thought you had to angle it to get the bottom notch to lock… then you hear the mb memory contacts grind like a comb and think- I f’d up
You could add 10 seconds to this clip and tell others which slot to install in. Noobs wouldnt know that they had to ID the dual channel slots to get optimised performance.
Does it matter if you put one corner in first and then click the other end into place? I'm trying to install in an existing PC and not matter how hard I try I can't push the RAM straight in so both ends snap into place at the same time, I just wondered if doing one end first matters, thanks
Is it still going in? Sometimes the sound isn't super loud. Otherwise if you're having an issue let me know, you can dm me on instagram with a video and I'll do my best to help!
Thanks for the feedback, I actually did have this in the video then cut it out in order to keep the video shorter. I might make another short explaining how to setup multiple sticks of ram and XMP!
@@milkymoth sorry I didn’t knew that you chopped the video, now it sounds logic to me because a lot of people do that as well, so they can diversify their content.
Double check that you have the notch linedup and the youre using the correct RAM, it's possible that you could be using a different generation than you board supports. Otherwise if it seems seated and the clips are down on either side you should be all good, some boards don't make a audible click. If youre still having issues let me know im happy to help!
Do i need to remove the motherboard from the cpu case and remove other parts like GPU and power supply Is it safe to directly put the ram with pc turned off
No need to remove everything. Just power off the pc and disconnect the cable, usally its also a good idea to press the power button a couple of times to discharge any extra power. Then just snap your RAM in
hello can i ask something? i have 2 pairs of ram with different version (same frequency and all ddr4), should place pair A in slot 1 & 2 and pair B in slot 3 & 4 or the order of placement doesnt matter at all?
My old laptop's ram was.. DDR4 16gb (2x8gb)2400mhz I upgraded it to.. DDR4 32gb (2x16)3200mhz Now When i turn it on the screen is black.. Is there a solution??
Sounds like an incompatible kit, Kingston and Crucial have really great compatibility checker tools for their SKUs. You can just plug in what laptop you have and they search their products for compatible RAM
@@quercingtime Well, in my situation I had the audio lowered and heard him say push femenanly. So I was pushing lightly, but then listened again and realized he was saying firmly, so I pushed harder and they clicked. If you can't put the rams in, then your motherboard probably doesn't support the ram you have. I would say check the motherboard and ram info.
doing ddr4 with ddr5 and mixing sticks together is *probably* fine, but i would get more of the same ram u have so ur mt/s speeds r consistent and reliable and wont cause any weird mobo issues
You can't mix ddr4 and ddr5 they are physically differently sized and also function differently. You would best to get another other kit, going for 2x 16gb would most likely be alot more cost effective than 3 more 8gb sticks
everyone coming here being afraid of doing too much pressure😂
Ong
Is it dangerous to put too much pressure on it?
You got it. My brother built my PC and I'm just so afraid that I will destroy smthXD
@@adamrafiqin2377no
That bend on the motherboard you made helped me know I wasn't in fact being too rough on mine 😂
the motherboard didnt bend. its the soft thingy uderneath, u were definetely being too ough
it didnt bend but if its on a flat surface solid or not it will be fine
Omg i was literally petrified with fear at the thought of breaking the motherboard the first I took apart my pc 😭😭😭😭😭😭
just wanted to drop in here and say i appreciate this vid got my pc upgraded from a pretty crappy 8 gb to now a 32 gb ram and this vid helped a ton thanks bro !!!!
I'm glad I was able to help out!
@@milkymothbit late but I’m having a problem where my pc only uses 7.9 gb of my 16 gb of ram do you know what’s causing this
Some of your ram will be system reserved. However if it seems like only 8gb is being detected, you might have a faulty stick
@@milkymothor it might just not be fully plugged in maybe? Idk
@@Iiiiii-cm1vfcheck to see if you have xmp enabled in your bios
I was rlly scared I might brake it after I tried hard to place it, I thought mabye somthing qas stuck 😂
Same!
This is helping me feel a lil less nervous only waiting on ram but I’m super nervous any other tips ?
First tip calm down don't be nervous about something simple
Just had the exact same problem but just oush it and keep slowly getting harder till it clicks- i had to push mine quite hard it was a bit atuck but the motherboard bends a bit dint worry bout it snapping

@@milkymoth Yes! Thanks to you!!! 🙏🙏🙏
Was feeling really dumb cause I took 'em out to unclip the fan and clean it but couldn’t get them back in, feel a little less dumb now
Thanks 😂😂 I was afraid i might break something I didnt know pressure was necessary.
im so not comfortable installing parts, especially since electronics are sensative, but this help, atl east for RAM

Cheers mate, appreciated ❤️
Thank you so much you saved my life😊😊😊
Im glad I was able to help
do i just install it in or do i need to activate it in the pc settings ?? i got a prebuilt 8gb but want to get 16 gb i got 2x 8gb sticks do i remove it and add them moth in ?
@@milkymoth
Instructions unclear. Shorted my board.
Does it need to be lying down ?
I'll do it lying down anyway
Doesn't need to, but it's definitely easier
Every time I try to do this I can't because my fingers are so fat🤣
I feel you, my fingers are always getting in the way!
Thank you bro i though my ram is damaged but this video really helped me out
So if you have two ram sticks from the same pack, do you put them right next to each other, or do you put one in the first slot and the other in the third slot? EDIT: nvm, I see you already answered this, my bad!
Hey Kayla,
Best to skip the 1st slot, put the first stick in slot 2, then skip slot 3, and put the second stick in slot 4.
Hope that helps!
@@milkymoth Thanks for your help!! I appreciate it a lot!
@@milkymoth what if its just two?
If you have just 2 slots you can fill them both up
Otherwise, if you're mixing 2 different ram kits over 4 slots, it's best to have those kits match speed and timings as close as possible.
Cause if not this can cause issues.
if one is a higher speed it will clock down the speed of the slower stick.
Or sometimes not even boot at all, in general it is best practice to match them exactly
You don't need to do some fancy programming typing on your PC?
Has anyone else thought you had to angle it to get the bottom notch to lock… then you hear the mb memory contacts grind like a comb and think- I f’d up
If it didn't work take the battery out and put it in again 🎉❤
Thank you ❤
Happy to help!
You could add 10 seconds to this clip and tell others which slot to install in. Noobs wouldnt know that they had to ID the dual channel slots to get optimised performance.
There is another short on my channel showing this also
I’m trying to figure out why I’m only able to use 16 out of 24 I tried taking them out and putting them back in but I’m still only able to use 16
Does it matter if you put one corner in first and then click the other end into place? I'm trying to install in an existing PC and not matter how hard I try I can't push the RAM straight in so both ends snap into place at the same time, I just wondered if doing one end first matters, thanks
As long as it is fully seated it shouldn't matter!
Looks Simple, but the hardest part is taking the parts out from the laptop.
Lmao, all I had to do was evenly push it down to click in 😂😂😂😂😂. I struggled for 5min trying to clip it manually
Wrong you snap it in half shake it a few times then install it.
No matter how I do there's no click sound
Is it still going in?
Sometimes the sound isn't super loud.
Otherwise if you're having an issue let me know, you can dm me on instagram with a video and I'll do my best to help!
@@milkymoth thanks!. I somehow fix it, by apply pressure and wiggle a bit lmao. It's a very old machine. The iconic dp67bg.
@@milkymoth its a old machine. So it barely have a click sound.
@@milkymoth I have the same problem what's Ur ig ??
Sometimes I think they're chocolate bars.
do you have to ground yourself before doing this?
What about the A2 and B2 thing ?
Tell people they are supposed to install two RAM sticks with one free slot between em too
Thanks for the feedback, I actually did have this in the video then cut it out in order to keep the video shorter. I might make another short explaining how to setup multiple sticks of ram and XMP!

@@Evan-rp7ny keep an eye out today and you will see a more in-depth short of what slots to Install Dimms in
No catch? Just stick it in?
great! now how to download it?
All under 20 seconds
Thank you so much
Glad that i can help!
is there a wrong way to install ram?
im talking about flipping it 180 degree
Yes there is, it can only go in one way.
You need to make sure you line that notch up properly!
It has never worked for me like that in like a quarter of a century...
Do I need to set anything in the boot menu screen? Or is it mainly just plug in and ready.
can u use two different brand ram sticks?
thanks
Glad I could help!
No shit. But when you use 2 of them, you place it in 2+4 slot.
Its not making the clack for me
Mine isn’t clicking do i press harder cuz I’m pressing hard rn
Double check that you have the notch linedup and the youre using the correct RAM, it's possible that you could be using a different generation than you board supports.

No need to remove everything.

Then just snap your RAM in
Is big problem if i have 1 ram stick
I have a problem of BIOS. how to over come it
No need to install from a program like u install a new hard drive?
Thanks
how to install ram ?
Can you install them while computer is on?
The computer should be fully powered off if you're installing anything inside
Can you install it into any slot of the 4? Does it matter because I have two 4gbs or ram and I want to install two more 4gbs of ram.
Our motherboard is same,, uuuuuhhhh
HyperX logo should be looking upwards. So the H is on the bottom and X on the top. Is this the right way or it doesnt matter ?
Note: Use both hands
Is ram plug and play or it will need any setup?
You should enable XMP for Max performance, check out my latest short for a tutorial!
Do u have to configure after u put them in
Hey can i just install only one stick of ram?
You most definitely can!
@@milkymoth so in which slot should i install it
Second from the left
I did everything right but it didnt click 😢
You broke it
Don't stress I don't think it's broken, does the pc boot and detect it?
Sometimes they don't have a loud click
@@milkymoth Yes it did
Bro my ram notch doesn't match with the slot notch what should i do?
You might have the wrong type of RAM for your motherboard, would be best to return this and get the correct RAM
If your motherboard supports ddr4 ram get that one.
my pc has 12gb (8+4) and i want a total of 16. do i have to replace the 4gb with 8gb stick or just buying a 4gb stick will do? please help
nvm i only have 2 slots
hello can i ask something? i have 2 pairs of ram with different version (same frequency and all ddr4), should place pair A in slot 1 & 2 and pair B in slot 3 & 4 or the order of placement doesnt matter at all?
I would keep the matching pairs in the same channel like you said, this would allow for best compatibility.
i highly recommend warning people the dangers of doing this incorrectly
Blue screen of death is the main one
Do I have to take the motherboard out of my pc to install ram?
No you do not, it's just easier to show on a bare mobo
Thanks bc I just removed my ram by accident don’t ask how
I thought you said brain 😂
My old laptop's ram was..
DDR4 16gb (2x8gb)2400mhz

Is there a solution??
looks like u havent installed it properly

If it looks like its it see if it boots, sometimes it's not a audible click
@@milkymoth my atx 24 pin wont fit well its too tight is it ok if i just let it without latching tge pins? Im using a silverstone psu
You definitely want it to be latched in
maybe stupid question but if i wanna add ran to my pc can i just install it to the pc or do i have to remove the motherboard or something?
No need to remove the motherboard, you can just click the sticks in!
@@milkymoth hi I have a gpu that's right beneath the ram slots so should I remove the GPU or can I just install the ram without removing it
You should be able to just remove the ram without taking out the gpu!
It never clicks, what do I do? I tried flippingn it but that's not helping
I have the same issue! And now the pc won’t start

Hi i have a problem i think mine wont fit but i had it for years
I have a problem of BIOS. how to over come it
Thanks
Let's say I install my ram. Is there any need for a software component?
Hi, what did you mean by software component?
Sorry im a little confused!
I think I have the same question. After installing the ram is there anything on my computer I should do or will it recognize the new ram?
Your PC should just recognise it, however you should go into your BIOS and enable XMP to make sure its running at the rated speed!
Thanks@@milkymoth
@@milkymoth Thank you very much!
